Here are comparative takes from the mainstream media, and an alternative blog on the significance of India banning export of non-basmati rice (basmati rice is long-grain; non-basmati comes in all sizes), the sort that is mainly eaten in Asia, and the world. India normally supplies 40 percent of this rice for the world, and claims that poor weather is behind the decision. That could be true in part, but I suspect that there is much more to this story that just another climate/weather freak-out. Could it be that India sees the writing on the wall, of approaching World War III, and is moving to stockpile local food supplies? Whatever the cause, food prices will go up even faster now.

Even I intend to buy a big bag of rice this Friday night shopping. Just checked prices on-line; will run to the supermarket now. Well, not run, but walk less slowly than usual. Maybe just settle for good old Aussie rice, and feel national pride in eating it.

John Anderson has given a tremendous review of a book by Gary Johns, The Burden of Culture: How to Dismantle the Aboriginal Industry and Give Hope to its Victims, Quadrant Books, 2022. This one goes to the core of the Voice issue, since Johns is critical of the existing Aboriginal industry itself, which wastes billions funding elites, while a small but vitally important sector of Aborigines, mainly in the outback, outside of the concerns of the inner-city New Class elites, suffer deprivation. If the present Aboriginal industry has not helped the Aboriginal people who need it most now, and billions were given for them to do so, the even more extravagant Voice will fail spectacularly. It is a compelling argument that people need to be making now. The prime minister has not shown how changing the constitution for the Voice will do what should be done now, and could be quickly done by legislation. So, there is a hidden agenda.

Clearly the Voice is yet another New Class moral high ground posturing which in its racially discriminatory way, does nothing to help the people it claims to be helping, but everything to enrich those of the New Class who have fed off of vast public money for decades, and now look towards the Voice as the new gravy train.

A great post by one of our favourite journalists, Rebekah Barnett (if you have some spare money, subscribe to her blog to support young Aussie independent journalists). Human rights lawyer peter Fam cuts to the chase in criticism of the government’s new mis-and disinformation Bill. The Bill, proposes to allow the Australian Media and Communications Authority (ACMA) to create and enforce industry standards for the internet, forcing platforms under pains of massive fines, to censor content that the government does not like. Thus, all the debate about the Covid mandates, lockdowns and vax injuries would have been suppressed if the Bill was in as law. I would expect that all the other evils that the Labor Party has instore including the Voice referendum, and inevitable treaty, will also be dealt with in this way.

At the bottom of this article are some things you can do to oppose it, including a link to the government site where you can put in a letter of protest and opposition. Hopefully someone like Elon Musk will get moving and challenge this Bill in the High Court of Australia. From this point on, let us call the Labor Party, the Evil Party.

We need to be concerned about the science, when it is being used to destroy Western civilisation, as the mainstream climate crisis “science” or more accurately pseudo-science, is now doing. Professor John F. Clauser,  is an American theoretical and experimental physicist, who was  awarded the 2022 Nobel Prize in Physics. He made the remarks below critical of the leading climate change crisis organisation, the UN’s Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC), which he says is pseudoscientific.

This did not go well with the establishment at all, to have someone who decided a question that stumped Albert Einstein unload on the globalist organisation that is tirelessly working to end our lifestyle. Hence, the International Monetary Fund cancelled his appearance, and he is finding that he is getting quite a lot more cancellations from that tribe. Probably not as many dinner party invitations as well from that crowd.

A grassroots team, Dilley Meme Team’s Lauren3ve, have put together a political ad for Trump that covers everything that has happened since the stolen 2020 election. The work was not paid for by the Trump campaign, and shows what a dedicated team of individuals can do. I hope something like this can be put together in Australia for the Voice campaign. You need to show the Marxist agenda behind it. There should be footage available. The ordinary voters need to get a taste of what the globalist lap dogs in parliament have in store. 

Jason Aldean’s song, Try That in a Small Town, which was an attack upon the anarchy of the antifa riots of 2020, would probably have just remained at number 35, before falling, on the Country record charts. But, the white liberals could not tolerate it, and had the song banned from play. That threw a tiger amongst the liberal pigeons, and now the song has shot to number 2 on Billboard’s Hot 100 list. And, for music, that is big time, better than Taylor Swift! Naturally the white liberals proclaimed that the song as racist, portraying Blacks committing crimes. But numerous Black commentators on YouTube pointed out that this was absurd, as most of the footage was of crazed white antifa.

The best the woke could come up with was that the footage showed the courthouse of Maury County, and back in the day of 1927 a Black was lynched there. Well, it is most unlikely that the musicians knew about that, and lynchings of Whites by Blacks also occurred. Showing the court house, even if intentional, does not endorse lynching, since the point can be made that the 1927 act was a great injustice, just like the 2020 antifa acts. Both were along the same lines of vigilante “justice.” And, if the court house was so offensive, it should have been pulled down long ago, like the White House should have been!

Gregory Hood, writing at American Renaissance.com, gives his take from America on the Australian voice referendum. There is nothing new as such tht we have not covered, but he piece is a nice one, as it cuts to the chance of the issue here, an gives an outsider’s view. Here it is: “It’s easy to predict what a Voice will do. It will be a permanent political base for Indigenous activists to complain about inequalities. These inequalities are biological and therefore permanent, so there will be ever more ambitious “solutions” proposed in defiance of reality, with symbolic gestures and “official advice” turning into accusations that white Australians have no right to be there. The Voice will have constitutional status, so the least damaging outcome will be a state-recognized ethnic lobby that can never be eliminated. The worst outcome would be that Parliament and the High Court gradually give it powers that naïve “Yes” voters never imagined, just as American civil rights law ultimately overwhelmed foundational constitutional protections.”

It really will be the abolition of the Australia that we know.

Only months ago, the mainstream dismissed the idea that general AI would be replacing journalism. But now the technocrats at Google have announced that they are working on AI to write news stories. It is being tested now. At first, I was concerned about this, but deeper thought led me to stop worrying on this one, as most of the mainstream media journalists are little more than robots anyway, and being replaced by real robots is probably neither here nor there in the scheme of things now.

Henry Ergas has zeroed in on the fundamental problem with the Yes case for the Voice. The issue is, that while the details of how the Voice will operate in fine detail are being kept by the prime mister under wraps until the thing is in, he hopes, in which case we will find out why it is a bad idea to sign blank cheques, the Voice by definition will give a special racial status to one ethno-racial group, the indigenous. It will be discrimination by race. The Yes side may argue that this is necessary to right historical wrongs, but that has not been shown, and such programs elsewhere in the world, have created division, and have not generated equity; instead they have rewarded a New Class who reap the benefits of these racial schemes.

The No case is consistent with the liberal democratic ideal of equality of all citizens.

Mark Powell, continues the excellent coverage the Spectstor.com is giving to the Voice referendum issue, with the highest quality journalism bringing critical awareness of the issues that is not seen in the rest of the press. Powel says that we can see where the Voice will take Australia, if successful by the Aboriginal Cultural Heritage Laws of Western Australia. He discusses in detail how there was a plan to plant 5,500 shrubs and trees, presumably for carbon reductions. B Whadjuk Aboriginal Corporation demanded $2.5 million in exchange for its approval!  The decision was reversed after the public jumped up and down. There have been other stories like this as well, but he message is clear that the more powerful voice will not be so easily controlled.

The Covid controversies may have fallen from the public eye, but they still continue. Thus, an Australian doctor, Dr. William Bay, spoke out about the side effects of the Covid vaxxes. He received a medical registration suspension notice from the Australian Health Practitioner Regulation Agency (AHPRA) in 2022. He then filed a lawsuit against the AHPRA, the Medical Board of Australia and the state government to Queensland’s Supreme Court in November 2022, and then applied to have the case heard by he High court of Australia. This application was rejected on technicalities, but Dr Bray has appealed that and the case now awaits to see if the defendants contest the appeal.  As the unconstitutionality of the Health Practitioner Regulation National Law is now being challenged, this case will be a significant one for the future if he wins.

Here is, for reference purposes, a summary of a recent academic article from the Institute of Economic Affairs, assessing the effects of the Covid lockdowns upon Covid-19 mortality. It is a meta-analysis, meaning a lot of studies are examined and statistical methods used to formulate a type of overview. The short of the long is that “lockdowns in the spring of 2020 had a negligible effect on COVID-19 mortality. This result is consistent with the view that voluntary changes in behaviour, such as social distancing, did play an important role in mitigating the pandemic.”

This is still important for us to be aware of, because the likes of Bill Gates, have expressed certainty that there will be another “pandemic,” perhaps sooner that most people would expect. My guess is that one will be planned to allow mail voting fraud for the 2024 US election. The elites, having succeed in putting the population in cages once, will do so again.

Before writing this story, I saw the news flash that a high tech communist Chinese spy ship was outside of Australian territorial waters, probably observing the military drills of the international Talisman Sabre military exercise. This is going to be standard stuff from now on.

But, there is much worse as far as communist Chinese vessels goes. China’s strategy of controlling the global seafood supply now seems to be to create giant floating cities, such as the one now of the coast of Argentina. The present vessel is larger than Washington DC. The floating city supplies Chinese fishing vessels which drain entire areas of fish, leading to extinction and ecological deserts. Then the city moves on. It has been predicted that the entire South Atlantic will be extinct of fish within the space of only a few years.

The West through the ideology of woke has embraced almost the entire package of goods that the USSR embodied at its worse; it has not taken the iron fist approach so much as the silk chains. While the Soviets used psychiatry as a political weapon, to enforce communist dogma and state obedience, the US is now moving to mental health round-ups and involuntary detentions.

At present in New York City, for example, one could be hospitalised for having a suspected mental illness for having “firmly held beliefs not congruent with cultural ideas,” exhibit a “willingness to engage in meaningful discussion,” have “excessive fears of specific stimuli,” or refuse “voluntary treatment recommendations.” This is little more than a thought crime, and  not only in New York but across the country, the police are now empowered to detain individuals they believe to be mentally ill, based solely on their own judgment. Be sure that refusing vaccination will be taken as a clear sign of mental illness.

We have been reporting on transhumanism, the idea that the human species will be merged with artificial intelligence to create homo sapiens 2.0, and then the replacement of human biology by cyborgs. That seems far-fetched, but one needs only reflect upon what the Dr Frankensteins have done over the last 50 years or so with biotechnology, to take this all very seriously.

So, for example, here is an Australian example. The Office of National Intelligence has given an Australian research team $ 600, 000 to research into how human brain cells could be merged with artificial intelligence, to integrate the fields of artificial intelligence and synthetic biology to create “programmable biological computing platforms.” The idea is to achieve a synthetic biological intelligence, so far only featured in science fiction, to surpass silicon-based hardware. The human brain excels at lifetime learning, an evolutionary development, while AI is not so good at this, so the merger will apparently transcend present limits. “The outcomes of such research would have significant implications across multiple fields such as – but not limited to – planning, robotics, advanced automation, brain-machine interfaces, and drug discovery, giving Australia a significant strategic advantage.” So, they say.

When I see material on the limits of electric vehicles, I post it, since this is the spearhead of the globalist/Green push for the elimination of petrol and diesel cars. Do not under-estimate what they are set to do, with many jurisdictions planning bans of conventional cars by 2030, and there is one plan for a ban on new petrol cars for Australia by 2035:

London mayor, Sadiq Khan is always on the lookout from some new woke scheme to try out on the majority non-white population of London. The latest is the “Maaate” campaign against so-called toxic masculinity. It features advertisements where men are supposed to callout other men who use such phrases as “boys will be boys,” calling women “drama queens” and thinking men and women are different. These are all examples of hateful misogyny. It is ironic that this sort of nonsense is pushed, when the grooming gangs, and rape of British children continues to this day:

Honest presidential candidate Robert Kennedy appeared before an extraordinary House hearing on censorship and the role the federal US government played in forcing social media companies to ban content, especially over the Covid plandemic. What was ironic is that the members openly acted to suppress Kennedy at the meeting, first moving to stop him from speaking at all, then trying to prevent the public from hearing him speak, and when he was speaking, shouting over him, abusing him and defaming him. It was extraordinary stuff, which all goes to prove the point at issue, that the politicians are not in office, as they see it, to serve the people, and protect liberal democratic values, but rather to act for the interests of those funding their re-election, such as Big Pharma.

Here is why a nodding awareness of what the scientists are up to is important, as they are working away to change the human essence. Take the recent announcement that the Dr Frankensteins are literally on the way to making man, to take a human stem cell, and transfer it into a human egg. That egg can then be fertilised with human sperm, although there are moves to artificially produce sperm as well.  The technology is justified for its social utility, such as also being used to create sperm for lesbian couples, so that they can have babies with genes from both women, and transgender couples could also use the technology to have biologically related babies.

Comparisons have often been made between the fall of Rome and what is believed to be the coming fall of the American empire which is seemingly accelerating.  Both empires faced mass immigration which radically transformed the ethnic profile. This is occurring now with the US rapidly becoming not merely non-European, but non-white in terms of the majority demographics. For Rome, this breakdown in national cohesion was one factor lading to the relative ease of the Germanic “barbarians” successfully raiding and destroying Rome, as detailed by Peter Heather in The Fall of the Roman Empire.  “Like Rome by the end of the 4th century and into the 5th century, the USA is in decline.  We can expect a collapse of our dominant role in the near future.  Our society is divided beyond repair.  Even without a civil war, the division itself bespeaks extreme weakness.  The God of the Holy Bible is no longer the clear God of our country.  Godless and immoral elements supported now by one of our two great political parties have set up a barrier to compromise, and the Republicans are too weak and accommodating to restore national unity.”

An essay well worth reading that elaborates in great detail on these themes is Michael Anton, “The Pessimistic Case for the Future.” The focus of these writers is upon the US, which is at the leading edge of decline, but he same forces are acting across the West, in Australia as well.
